Purple-bibbed white-tip (Urosticte benjamini), Sachatamia, Ecuador

Ah, white moustachial stripe and post-ocular patch -- must be green-crowned brilliant or booted racket-tail? No, breast heavily spotted, legs unfeathered: female purple-bibbed white-tip. The species is restricted to the Pacific Slope of the Andes in Colombia and northern Ecuador.
